In the classic Windows desktop client and the extension for Visual Studio, you can predefine the code signing identity that you want to use for code signing your app in the Properties dialog. The code signing identity is the combination of a cryptographic identity and a matching provisioning profile. Even if you set a code signing identity, AppBuilder will prompt you to select a provisioning profile when you attempt to publish the app.

Apple Watch bundles consist of three components - a host app running on your iOS device, a watch extension which takes care of the communication between the iOS device and the Apple Watch and a watch app running on the Apple Watch. Each component has a dedicated provisioning profile and hence, a dedicated code signing identity.

IMPORTANT: At build time, when prompted to choose a code signing identity or a provisioning profile with which to build your app, you need to select the provisioning profile for the host app.

In the command-line interface, you cannot set the default iOS code signing identity for your app. When you build for a connected iOS device, the command-line interface attempts to build your app with an applicable pair of provisioning profile and cryptographic identity for iOS development.
